The Avozilla
The avozilla - a new giant variety of avocado is attracting fans from around the world.
In Australia farmer David Groves has started growing the fruit - which is about five times the size of a standard avocado.
Since 2000 the global production of avocados has doubled to meet the surging demand.
Mr Groves said: "Everybody wants to know all about where they came from, and how we got them so big."
